Timei, Owner, Lagoon View Resort

Situated on a flat overlooking miles of skinny water, Lagoon View Resort lives up to its’ name. Offering a soft, white sand beach and plenty of shaded lounging areas, it’s perfect for the reliving the adventure of the one that got away or enjoying a day off.  Plenty of palm trees and privacy add to the serenity of this pristine place.

Lagoon View Resort is located on the edge of the village of London. Take a right at the main road as you leave the airport. A 15 minute drive will bring you to Lagoon View Resort where a large, white sailboat welcomes you, letting you know your vacation has begun!

Fishing License:

A fishing license will cost you $250. It is good for a year.

Rental cars are $200 per day and only available on a weekly basis. If you are planning to do most or all of your trip DIY we strongly suggest you have a car. When conditions permit, there is good bonefishing in the flats right behind Lagoon View, but more often than not the water isn’t clear enough to fish so you’ll want to be able to get around.

A boat and one guide for the day is $310 and can accommodate up to 4 anglers. Searching the flats for bonefish, triggerfish or GT are options as well as trolling the blue water for tuna, wahoo, marlin or milkfish. Additional guides are $100 per day.

All meals are served at any time of your choosing in a separate dining area. Meals are very simple, but well prepared and may include fresh seafood (lobster and tuna or grouper), pork, chicken, steak, some vegetables, rice and beans. Lunches generally include sandwiches, chips, fruit, etc. Please remember you are on a very remote island and there aren’t endless options. Contact us if you have dietary restrictions and we will do our best to accommodate.
